Let's get this math done. We have 3098 and 8431 and we're going to add them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 1 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 3 in column 2 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 4 in column 3 and get 5.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 8 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 3098 + 8431 = 11529.
